Fabolous

Villa Olivia is fantastic. We had wonderful holidays in Minorca thanks to Bob and Margareth. Our children were enthusiastic. Big rooms, spacious garden, the villa is equiped of all you need and is foot-distance from Punta Prima beach. Near to Mahon and not distant from the airport.

The villa was clean (from this point of view we are really demanding) and well furnished, we felt like at home. Communication with Bob has been very punctual and clear. He gave us advice about rental car company, and we appreciated it very much. Menorca Sol Cars are really competitive and offer a great service, without extra cost surprises.

We are plannig to spend our holidays in Minorca again and when we go back to this idillic island we would like to return to villa Olivia.

Location

Activity and Interests

Coast/Beach:

The wide, sandy beach of Punta Prima is a 3 minute walk from the villa and considered one of the best on the island. The turquoise sea is shallow for a long way out so is safe for children and good for snorkeling. During the summer a full time life guard is on constant watch. The promenade is fringed with shops, bars, supermarkets (2) and restaurants. The Barcelo Hotel welcomes children to its water park. There is an attractive toddler and childrens' park close to the beach.

Travel:

Mahon airport is an easy 15 mins drive from the villa and Mahon and its harbour are just a 20 min bus ride away. Bus services are frequent and cheap. Car hire is not essential but would enhance your stay as there are so many unique and wonderful places of interest to explore. Bicycles can be hired locally. There are many interesting and attractive paths to explore for walkers. The newly restored 'Cami de Cavals' (historic bridal path) provides a clearly marked island coastal path.

Distances:

The island of Menorca is approximately 33 miles x 10 miles so nowhere is very far away. Bus services, in the Summer months, are good but car hire would greatly enhance accessibility to the dozens of idillic secret beaches to be found along narrow lanes and tracks. Our local centre of government, the little town of Sat Lluis, is just 4 km away and provides a wealth of shops and restaurants etc. The capital city of Menorca, Mahon, is just 7 km. At the other end of the island Ciutadella is a must!

Further Details:

There are many activities available on the Island including : water sports, diving, boat hire, golf, tennis, riding, cycling, walking, go-karting, bowling etc. Menorca is famous for its leather goods, clothes, shoes, gin and liquers, cheese and dairy products. Menorca is steeped in ancient history and civilisations. Nowhere else is there such a concentration of pre-historic buildings and remains such as the many standing stones, taulas and navetas scattered across the island. All of the ancient civilisations of the Mediterranean have made their mark somewhere but most notable were possibly the influence of the Romans, Moors and later - the British and the French as evidenced in the coastal defence towers, architectural features and the massive fortress of La Mola.
